The series of attacks by multiple forces directly stunned the Korsi family.
The goods were put on hold, preventing them from settling the payment. A large number of orders overwhelmed them like a tide, and the family suffered a major blow.
Amir woke up only the next day.
As soon as he woke up, his first words were: "Is business like this?"
"It's all over." His eldest son said with a cry on his face.
Hearing this, Amir almost fainted again, but he still managed to smile and said: "What about the specific losses!"
"Almost all the family property has been sold, and there is still a gap of more than a thousand gold tals." Othello said bitterly. He didn't know what happened. In just two days, such a thing happened.
Who on earth brought such trouble to the family.
"Is it more than a thousand, haha!" Amir closed his eyes in despair.
More than a thousand gold tals, that’s a lot!
This is the bad thing about their kind of business. Once something goes wrong, the losses will be sky-high. The only way out is to ask the merchants to give them goods.
"What about the Chamber of Commerce? Have you asked if we can solve it?" Amir looked at his eldest son. The usually decisive and brave eldest son seemed a little at a loss at this time.
It is true that when a man sits at home, disaster comes from heaven.
"Father, when I went to the Rose Chamber of Commerce, Roland didn't see me at all. He kept pushing away and went to the Kazan Chamber of Commerce. The fat man talked to me and just didn't go to the center." The eldest son sighed.
"Damn it, if I knew who did it, I would kill him!" Othello said angrily.
He was about to become the director of the library. It was simply inexplicable to encounter such a thing.
"Forget it, how long can we last!" Amir looked at his unfulfilled son and asked with a sigh.
"Two days!" the eldest son said with difficulty.
"Now even our castle has been mortgaged. Mother and others have been kicked out. We don't even have a place to live now." The eldest son continued.
"Is that so?" Amir rubbed his dizzy head.
"Then father, do you want to borrow some money from other viscounts and earls? Let's go there first." Othello was worried to death. If the family really fell, what would happen to his future?
"Humph, all the industries are gone, and the channels are gone. Who will lend us money in this situation!" Amir said bitterly.
They are united by interests, so when there is no profit, it is time for them to go their separate ways.
"What should we do?" Othello frowned, his tone sounding like he was scolding.
"Why are you talking to your father?" The eldest son on the side couldn't stand it anymore and stared at Othello.
"Huh!" Othello glared at him and stopped talking.
"Forget it, there is only one way to go now." Amir finally thought about it and finally sighed.
"What way?" Othello's eyes lit up.
"Leave King's Landing and run!" There were only three of them here, but Amir still whispered.
The three people's eyes widened.
…
Three days later.
Eli gets the news that the Corsi family has run away.
It seems that he left King's Landing overnight with his things, and was said to be heading to other countries, leaving behind a large number of angry business people who had neither received their goods nor their money.
Their channels and industries were divided between the Elena family, the Gremory family, the Rose Chamber of Commerce, and the Kazan Chamber of Commerce. The first two took most of it, and the latter two took a little bit.
All parties are very satisfied. It is an obligatory action in the first place, and it would be even better if we can receive benefits.
The only thing that surprised Eli was that Othello didn't leave. He stayed alone in King's Landing, still thinking about his dream of being a curator.
…
"Eli, why didn't you deal with my things?"
Eli's room is pushed away again by Othello, who looks angry.
The family left and he was left alone, but he did not leave because he felt that as long as he became the librarian, these things would be solved slowly and he would become the hero of the family.
And he was reluctant to part with the fame and fortune that was about to come.
So in the past few days, he vented his family's failure on everyone in the library. In just two days, everyone was deeply disgusted with this guy and wanted him to leave quickly.
"Okay, I'll help you handle it." I originally thought that Eli would refuse, but unexpectedly he actually accepted.
"You are sensible!" Othello was stunned.
In the past two days, everyone seemed to be full of malice towards him, but he didn't expect Eli to be so polite here.
It seemed that he had mistakenly blamed this young man.
Othello still respects him very much!
"Yes, yes, that's how it should be!" Othello smiled, turned and walked out.
Looking at his back, Eli smiled.
What a pitiful man!
…
after one day.
Othello is dead.
It is said that he died in an alley.
No one knows who killed him. They only know that when he was found, his body was already smelly in the high temperature, and his face could not even look like it was originally.
There is no doubt that someone specifically killed him.
As for the most likely possibility, it was the group of angry businessmen who were owed money, and since Othello was alone and had no one to help investigate, the matter just went unsolved.
And just after this, the election of the curator also began.
Because of Othello's sudden death, elections suddenly become the province of the library again.
On the other hand, the team of scholars who went out to study also suddenly returned, which disrupted the nobles' plans and the right to vote returned to the library.
The election started normally.
One is the senior and diligent Bachelor Lemon, and the other is the Bachelor Deputy Curator who was just promoted a few years ago. The result goes without saying.
Lemon was confused.
He somehow became the director of the library again.
He didn't do anything, why is this happening?
…
this day.
In a conference hall.
At this time, the hall is full of people, and these are all the library's own people, including some people from other forces, because today is the succession ceremony of the library director.
Eli stood beside Lemon and followed him up to the central platform.
Amid the blessings of a group of bachelors and bachelors, Lemon took over a simple cane, took the badge representing his identity, and smiled.
Everyone below them smiled and applauded warmly.
Many people breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, the Corsi family suddenly collapsed, otherwise there would have been a big chaos. No one wanted to suddenly become the king's private institution. Is such a scholar serving others or studying?
As everyone applauded, in the corner.
A charming woman opened her mouth. She patted the woman beside her and asked, "Is that old man Maester Lemon?"
"Yes, Hela, don't you know?" The woman is also a bachelor, but beside her is the famous Hela Grand Bachelor.
"Who is that kid next to you?" Hela asked again.
"He seems to be Lemon's student, let's call him Eli."
After hearing this, Hela was stunned on the spot.
How many years have you been living?
ten years?
She always thought that Eli was Lemon, and even once let the deputy director out directly.
Hela was confused.
Reality is just too magical.
